Attention, whisky enthusiasts and citizens alike! This is an emergency broadcast regarding a singular libation of extraordinary proportions. Brace yourselves for the revelation of a 1996 Ben Nevis erupting from the venerable peak of the same name, and matured in the seclusion of a single butt.
Issued by That Boutique-y Whisky Company, this apocalyptic potion is part of the harrowing End of the World whisky series, where each release unveils a different cataclysmic narrative. Good times! In this urgent bulletin, we present to you a whisky of calamitous pedigree, as it bears witness to the catastrophic demise of the world as we know it. As you uncork this vessel, prepare your palates for impact, and take heed of the label's dire warning — a super volcano, an apocalyptic force poised to rend the fabric of our world asunder. Stay vigilant, and may your spirits be fortified in the face of the impending eruption. This is not a drill.
Batch 17 is a release of 553 bottles.
That Boutique-y Whisky Company bottles limited edition whiskies from a variety of renowned distilleries as well as producing award-winning blends, all adorned with cultish graphic novel-style labels. The brand won Spirits Bottler of the Year at the 2023 Spirits Business Awards, and Blender of the Year went to Sam Simmons, captain of the Boutique-y clan who oversees every one of these releases.
Chalky grist and flinty minerality lead the way, with candle wax and delicate notes of tangy fruit.
Things remain waxy, with notes of citrus peel joined by sweet, tropical passion fruit and dried mango.
Delicate notes of pepper join for the finish.
